Hi, is there any limit to the number of arguments I can pass to vararg argument, for example in listOf(), I have one place in code where I have to pass about ~3000 items (compile time constant), but the compilation is failing??

[CLOVIS]

IIRC it's about 2 billion, so you should be fine (at least on Kotlin/JVM, not sure if it's the same for other platforms)

[CLOVIS]

3000 items in a single vararg seems unusual though, I'm curious what the use case is?

I have text stored in sqlite, and want to save it in json files, the data in sqlite is 1 line per row, however there is no information for say paragraph ends, i want to add that information, so had to hard code that...

this is error i am getting

[Akshdeep Singh]

also this line:

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\development\me\database\build\classes\kotlin\main\data\Scripture.class (The system cannot find the file specified)

[CLOVIS]

is there a caused by further down the exception's stacktrace?

[Akshdeep Singh]

Internal compiler error. See log for more details

I don't know where are the logs?

[CLOVIS]

When there is no proper error message, you should report it: https://kotl.in/issue

If you can give them the source file that causes the problem, it will help a lot

You could probably store that hard-coded info in a file and parse it into an Array (that's what vararg even is)
